Detailed explanation-1: -The Primacy/Recency Effect is the observation that information presented at the beginning (Primacy) and end (Recency) of a learning episode tends to be retained better than information presented in the middle.
Detailed explanation-2: -Memorizing a list of words is like running a marathon. There is the beginning, a very long middle that blurs together, and now it is the end. The primacy effect is the beginning; you remember it because that is where you started. The recency effect is the finish; you remember the end the best.
Detailed explanation-3: -The primacy/recency effect says new information is most easily absorbed and retained at the beginning and end of a learning episode. Research suggests that these are the prime times for students to be presented with new content. Anecdotally, this makes a lot of sense.
